This is not an online self-paced course. You will learn Web Analytics in a safe virtual live classroom through the digital conference application Zoom. We are limiting the size of the course up to 20 students for better engagement. This will allow us to bring the best to you in the current circumstances. UMSL Digital is aware of the global situation, which is why we are creating a safe learning environment for our students.
Why should I take this 3-day intensive?
Understanding web behavior is important to ensure a good user experience and maximize the conversion rate of visitors to customers. There is an abundance of web data out there. Knowing what is important and what is not is critical to you being productive and effective. Not understanding what is happening under the hood of Google Analytics will not allow you to be as effective as you can be.
Some of the biggest mistakes people make when using Google Analytics include:
- Looking at data only in aggregate
- Not segmenting
- Forgetting to filter out internal IP addresses
- Looking for patterns that do not exist and based on too little data
- Not tagging your social media links with UTM tags for tracking purposes.
- Not using a single GA tracking ID to follow your complete funnel from content to conversion
And, of course, we could continue for many more pages!
